    Based on the Nix presser we're drafting o-line and Edwards will be the starter.

    Watch the last 2 minutes of the presser. I believe Edwards gets his job back next year. Nix addressed poor line play and how a guy lost his confidence.

    So are you guys going to be *****ing if our new GM and coach insert Edwards as the starter?

      The new HC should be the one who makes that decision, but since he'll be another puppet who really knows.

        I think we have to wait for the new HC before making a QB decision. If you listen to the whole video, Buddy said it would be up to the coaches.

          He didn't say Edwards. He said all 3 of the QBs are still ours and it will be up to the head coach what he wants to do with them. That could mean Brohm or even Fitzpatrick ( )

            Uh, this was just a presser and a "we need a better o-line" talking point.

                He was addressing Edwards if not by name. Watch it.

                If Cowher comes in here and says Fitzpatrick is our guy I'd be okay with that. I just want someone with a brain making the decisions.

                  I would think that would be up to the coach. Calm down bro

                    If all he had to choose between was dumb and dumber, yeah i would hope he would pick dumb.

                    But if it was Fitz over betterQBa or betterQBb that we had a chance to get, that would be upsetting.

                    If its a scenario like Carolina where Fox stuck with Delhomme inspite of the team; upsetting.

                      IMO Edwards doesn't have the skills, OL or no OL he does not have what it takes to become a Franchise QB, if one is available in the draft or FA that they like they will take him.

                        1.) Bradford
                        2.) Clausen
                        3.) Edwards

                        If we can't get #1 or #2, I'm fine with option #3. Tebow would make a fine #4 option for when Trent gets injured, that's if we can get him at good value.

                          He also said you need a QB who can cut threw the wind in Buffalo and I don't think Fitzpatrick or Edwards can do that on a consistent basis.

                            You're right in that he didn't name any of the QBs specifically. But, he basically gave it away as soon as he started talking about confidence. That was never an issue with Fitz, but it was the obvious hurdle for Edwards.

                            Also, I interpreted his comments on giving the coaches a "chance with these guys" to mean nothing more than something along the lines of giving the coaches a chance to evaluate the QBs, possibly an offseason minicamp. Nix has a track record of drafting QBs with the intention of building the franchise around them, at least in SD anyway.
